Telegram, including secret chats, is not blocked because Russian elites happen to use that, too.

I could put on my tinfoil hat and say if signal is blocked but telegram isn’t, maybe that means that telegram isn’t as secret as they make it out to be.

Telegram is shady as fuck and also afaik only uses end to end encryption in „secret“ one on one chats.
